This moment is nothing like that moment.

Chen Ke sat in the main hall and watched the people around him speaking out and angrily scolding Hong Liang.

"Be bold!"

"You actually dare to oppose the county system?"

"How many lives do you have?"

Li Si stood up again and glanced at Chen Ke with a playful look in his eyes. Then he looked at Hong Liang and said, "Hong Liang, do you want to say that everything happening now is because of the county system? "

"The so-called Governor Chen of Penglaizhou harboring the prisoners has not yet been asserted, but you regard it as a genuine matter?"

"And use this to threaten His Majesty, the court, and this officer?"

There was no playfulness in Li Si's eyes at this time, replaced by endless flames, as if they were going to burn everything.

This flame seemed to come from three years ago, and it also seemed to come from now.

Hong Liang knelt on the ground with a frank expression, but the fear in his eyes clearly revealed his thoughts.

He was scared, but he was pretending not to be scared.

He was worried, but he was pretending not to be worried.

But who among the people present was not a human spirit? Who could not see the worry and fear in his heart?

Therefore, those present were more certain.

There is only one Chen Ke, and not everyone can repeat Chen Ke's actions back then.

There are indeed many problems with the county system, but at least it is not something that a feudal system can confront head-on.

Both have their own advantages, but the enfeoffment system is no longer suitable for today.

This is inevitable.

Everyone can recognize this clearly, but there will always be some people who are unwilling to accept it.

At this time, Chen Ke, who had been sitting there with his eyes closed, finally opened his eyes, but he did not speak.

He just glanced blankly at someone sitting in the crowd.

Then, a man stood up gracefully.

There was sincerity in his eyes and his elegant temperament, like a humble scholar.

This is one of the current representatives of Confucianism. Xiao He, a student from a hundred palaces, now serves as the Shaofu.

Xiao He chuckled, looked at Hong Liang and said: "Hong Yushi, when Governor Chen was still the Shaofu, he also opposed the system of counties and counties."

"But when the Shaofu opposed the system of counties and counties, it was well-founded."

"He also pointed out the shortcomings of the county system, and then improved it, enriched the county system, and selected many officials such as general judges."

"Those who serve as county chiefs, such as county guards, must also have studied in the Baijia Palace of Great Qin."

"But you oppose the county system and support the enfeoffment system, but you use some specious excuses and reasons. This seems a bit inappropriate, right?"

Xiao He stood there and with a few words, he changed Hong Liang's remarks that there were comments in support of enfeoffment in various places into his own remarks in support of enfeoffment.

From the beginning, Hong Liang could not escape, and the people behind Hong Liang also knew this.

At this time, someone from the crowd stood up again.

He is also a disciple of Baijia Palace.

Qu Liang stood up slowly. He was also a censor, so he was also qualified to speak at this time.

"Master Xiao, what you said is wrong."

Qu Liang stood there and said impartially, "Yu Shi Hong did not say that he supported the system of prefectures and counties. He just said that such remarks appeared in the local area."

"And this is indeed the result of the rumors that those county guards were tyrannical in the local area, isn't it?"

He was a little surprised and said in confusion: "How can reporting truthfully turn out to support the enfeoffment system?"

Qu Liang pointed at Hong Liang and said: "Maybe Hong Yushi does support the enfeoffment system, but he didn't say it out at this time, right?"

"Zi Fei Yu, An Zhi Yu Yu, Zi Fei Hong, Yu Shi, An Zhi Hong Yu Shi supports the enfeoffment system?"

Xiao He stood there, his expression unchanged at all.

As a real student who competed in the literary competition, especially the first literary competition, how could he be beaten by just a few words?

Xiao He immediately said: "What Qu Yushi said is more interesting."

"People are not fair, and they are definitely not selfish."

"It just depends on what selfishness is used for."

"Hong Yushi was reporting to the local governor at this time, while stating that such messages appeared in the local area."

"However, at this time we don't know whether these messages are true or false, and secondly whether these messages were spread by intentional people."

"Thirdly, we don't have any evidence at all to prove whether those county guards are really tyrannical, or whether they have infringed on the interests of some people and were then spread rumors by some people to cause trouble."

"Is it possible that with just a few words from Yushi Hong, we are going to deal with a third-rank official of the current court and a certain local county governor?"

He looked at Qu Liang, and there was no trace of tenderness in his expression at this time, and the rest was completely cold and solemn.

"If this is the case, will Yushitai be able to sue the nine ministers of the dynasty without any evidence in the future? Or even sue the three lords of the dynasty?"

"As long as they talk a little bit, a high official or even a mainstay in the court will be dealt with??"

"Do you have such power?"

"Even if His Majesty gives you such power, do you really dare to accept such power?"

Xiao He scolded in a cold voice, with an icy cold expression on his face. In the surrounding hall, the temperature in the surrounding hall seemed to have dropped several degrees in an instant.

At this time, Qu Liang's face turned pale. After all, he had never experienced that.

He was just forced into the palace of hundreds of families, and then appeared as a censor.

Xiao He turned around and looked at Ying Zheng on the stage.

"Your Majesty, I feel that Yushi Qu and Yushi Hong are attacking high-ranking officials at will without knowing the facts."

"This behavior is truly abhorrent."

"I would like to take a copy of the book for both of you. Your Majesty, please take a closer look!"

Perhaps Xiao He's voice just now was too exciting, so many ministers present spoke one after another.

"I second my opinion."

In an instant, the situation was reversed.

Hong Liang and Qu Liang were kneeling there, their expressions extremely pale. They looked at Ying Zheng sitting on the high platform, their eyes filled with fear.

Among the crowd at this time, Yan Kong watched this scene silently, lowered his head, and sneered softly.

Is that all there is to it?

He thought he was so capable that he dared to come to him.

Fortunately, he was not involved in this matter, otherwise he would probably be regarded as an outcast and thrown aside casually today, right?

Yan Kong lowered his head and did not express any opinions on this matter, nor did he object or support.

After Hong Liang felt that the atmosphere in the hall was getting colder, he unconsciously looked at someone sitting in the crowd.

Someone in the crowd just stood there, saying nothing, with an unclear expression.

After a moment, Ying Zheng raised his head slightly, looked at the ministers below and said, "What do you think of what these two said?"

The crowd was silent, no one dared to speak at this time.

Quietly, some sweat fell from Hong Liang's temples, and the sweat dripped on the floor of the hall, which was very obvious.

One person from the crowd stepped out.

The new Taishi ordered the capital to be sealed.

There was a little calmness in Fengdu's expression. When he walked out of the column, his whole expression looked very calm, like a warrior who knew the way forward but still wanted to move forward.

I just don't know if he is a just warrior.

Fengdu looked calm. He took out the results of his previous observation of the celestial phenomena from his arms, and then presented them respectfully.

"Your Majesty, I don't know how to comment on what Xiao Shaofu, Hong Yushi, and Qu Yushi said."

"But I observed the sky three days ago and came to a conclusion."

He said softly: "This celestial phenomenon is what I observed at Taishitai. Your Majesty, please take a look."

Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows slightly and said with a smile: "The observed celestial phenomena?"

"I talked about the feudal capital, what did you observe?"

"Talk to me."

Fengdu raised his head, took a deep breath, and then said: "Your Majesty, the celestial phenomena I observed were the stars of fire and disaster crossing the sky."

"If it is not dealt with in time, I am afraid that the scope of the disaster will gradually expand and affect the entire Great Qin."

Ying Zheng just looked at Feng Du and asked: "So, what do you think should be done to deal with this disaster star? Who is this disaster star?"

Fengdu just said: "I don't know, but I can conclude from the celestial phenomena that in three days there will be a vision of the Tengu eating the sun."

"And in the vision of Tengu eclipsing the sun, the disaster star will inevitably move. And when the power of the Emperor Star is strong at this time, the disaster star will definitely be temporarily counterattacked by His Majesty's divine power."

"The Disaster Star is someone who is close to His Majesty, and he is also an important minister in the imperial court."

"Therefore, during the Tengu Eclipse three days later, if an important official in the court suddenly falls ill, and the illness gets worse within three days, then we can find out who is the disaster star."

Feng Du's words are very high-level, starting from the things that Ying Zheng cares about the most and trusted the most before.

The focus of the topic directly involved the feudal system and the county system, and involved the so-called "celestial phenomena", the so-called "Yinghuo Shouxin", and the so-called Tengu eating the sun.

In this way, Qu Liang and Hong Liang were temporarily saved, and the topic was successfully changed.

Chen Ke sat there motionless. He knew that this was an attack on him, but he was also curious about what methods these people would use to make his illness worse in three days.

What if I am not sick after three days?

What kind of excuse do these people want to use?

In today's court, anyone with a discerning eye can see that there is a gathering of clan members against His Majesty and against the system of counties and counties.

The other force is dominated by His Majesty, who opposes the feudal system and supports the county system.

The situation is much clearer than in the past few days, but at the same time, some people feel that the situation today is more complicated than before.

Sometimes, things don't become simple and clear when they are exposed.

Often the more something is revealed, the more complicated it becomes, like a fog.

The more it is exposed, the more people can see how much is buried underneath this thing.

Is it really just a coincidence that problems have arisen one after another in Yushitai?

How many other people in Yushitai have problems?

Is there any problem with the imperial censor of the current dynasty?

Is there something wrong with some people in the Yushitai, or is there something wrong with the entire Yushitai?

In the Taishi Order, there are also these people. In which institutions do they still exist and still have power?

In the past, what had been lurking in Da Qin, possessed Da Qin, and had the same origin as him, making it impossible for people to see and tell who was who. At this moment, it was finally exposed.

It turns out that in the dark corner, these people have developed to this extent.

Ying Zheng glanced at Fengdu and simply said, "Oh?"

"Then let's wait and see in three days."

He glanced at Han Tan beside him again and said, "The person who can prove it hasn't arrived yet?"

Han Tan lowered his head and said softly: "Your Majesty, we have arrived and are now outside Zhangtai Palace."

"I'm just waiting for His Majesty's call."

Ying Zheng nodded slightly, looked at the many ministers and said, "Since there is no conclusion on this matter, let's continue to look at the previous events."

"For example, Chen Ke protected his student's younger brother, and even threatened the person who testified against him, and then beat him into submission."

Ying Zheng just used one sentence to bring the whole matter back to normal. The focus of the matter once again shifted from the issue of "celestial phenomena" to the issue of the feudal system and the county system.

At this time, footsteps sounded outside the hall, and a figure walked in slowly.

This man had some blood stains on his body and a few scars on his face, making him look like someone who had been severely tortured.

As soon as people arrived, the first thing they saw when they saw Ying Zheng was that he knelt on the ground.

"Minpeng came to Linzi County from Linzi County and met His Majesty."

"Your Majesty, for ten thousand years——"

"Great Qin Ten Thousand Years——"

Ying Zheng waved his hand nonchalantly and asked him to stand up. Then he looked at him and asked, "Hong Liang said you wanted to sue Chen Ke for shielding his student's younger brother."

"You also said that you witnessed Huo Shi's younger brother Huo Zhen murdering someone, but later he was beaten into a trap, so you had to give false testimony to get Huo Zhen released?"

"Is it true at this time?"

When Fang Cong stood in the hall, everyone present had a look of understanding in their eyes.

They all know what this means.

Hong Liang lowered his head, but a relaxed smile appeared in his eyes.

This is something they have already prepared and planned, and there will be absolutely no mistakes.

As long as Fang Cong bit him to death today because he saw Huo Zhen murder with his own eyes and was tortured by Chen Ke to force a confession and perjured himself, then there is no need to check everything before.

If there is one there must be two.

The emperor was stabbed by one of the most trusted people. Will he still trust the local governor so much in the future?

At that time, not only Chen Ke will be liquidated, but most of the county guards in the world will be liquidated.

As long as the emperor investigates, he can always find out the matter.

There are no clean people in the world, so can those county guards really not care about their relatives and friends at all?

But the human heart cannot withstand inspection.

Once a small gap in people's trust is broken, then it will start to flow out like a flood.

Standing in the main hall, Fang Cong raised his head.

He looked at Chen Ke with some inexplicable color in his eyes, and then looked at Hongdu.

The moment he spoke, everyone present was surprised.

"Your Majesty, this is not the case."
